That sucks. No matter how you try to spin it.

Not spinning anything. Was relaying a reality v. impression situation.
Would it be nice to get at least 8 in every stake? Yes. But let's face it, there are too many stakes in the National Stakes Book, and too few quality horses to go around. And the proximate scheduling conflicts of like distance/condition in stakes remain maddening. One thing is clear from looking at those stakes... turf racing works overtime boosting the overall entry scene.
